We are committed to promote the role of water in life

Forward Dear Reader: As part of its efforts to serve its community in a better way, UNESCOCWR has produced this profile. The purpose is to let you know who we are, what do we do and how best can we serve you or be of help to you. The profile reflects UNESCO-CWR mandate, objectives, part of its activities and facilities. UNESCO-CWR acquired wide recognition and good relationship with many relevant regional and international organizations. This gives the Chair a distinct advantage to accomplish its objectives, and serve its society more effectively. We hope, by producing this profile, UNESCO-CWR will interact with its prospective and distinguished Clients, sister organizations and institutions more closely and effectively.

8.1. The Library To help UNESCO-CWR in fulfilling its objectives, a library was established hoping later to be center for information and documentation in the field of Water Resources and related sciences. Currently the library holdings reached more than 3000 copies of books and references, proceedings of conferences, periodicals, and thesis for Higher Diploma, M.Sc. and PhD. The documents are mostly in English. It includes also in the division of e-library a number of compact discs (CD's) and electronic books. Annually the library receives new collections. The main reading room of the library accommodates about 35 researchers at any one time. The Library provides its services primarily to employees of UNESCO-CWR and graduate students at all levels (PhD- M.Sc. - Higher Diploma). It provides services to researchers and students from other universities and similar research institutes. The services range from using computers, World

8.5. Water Quality Laboratory This laboratory is equipped with very advanced instruments that especially suit the Sudan environment and needs. Moreover, the lab covers a wide range of tests and offers services for testing physical, chemical and biological properties of water. The lab was built in a flexible way to accommodate future development in basic and applied research, beside the general services for the society. Total quality central management program is initiated to combine both efficiency and precision. The state of the art of the laboratory system allows creating multi-analytical approaches to solving problems and generates strategic data and information. The Water Microbiology division provides testing services for numerous water types including, potable water, waste water, bottled water, food processing water and dialysis water. UNESCOCWR lab provides advice and assistance on water quality monitoring and water sample collection. The laboratory provides bacteriological analysis of water for the private sector, researchers, students, government departments and the general public. Various water quality tests are available to detect the number and types of microorganisms in water and assist communities in keeping the microbial content of their water supplies at safe level. These tests and standard procedures include:- Most Probable Number (MPN) using liquid media - Presence/ absence test using liquid media - Total Bacterial Count - Membrane Filtration Technique Further the following analysis can be performed in the lab. - Physicochemical analysis; - Major cations; - Major anions.

8.6 Survey Equipment: Field data measurements are crucial for the proper planning, design and management of water resources projects. UNESCO-CWR acquired modern Hydrographic and Land Survey equipment such as Total Station, Levels, GPS Sounder, ADPC, Engine-boat and other survey accessories. The field survey team is well trained and very experienced in conducting survey works efficiently and on time.

Land and Hydrographic Survey Equipment at Work

8.7 Groundwater Exploration Equipment Here the main concerned is groundwater exploration for drinking water and irrigation. We possess a sophisticated and advanced piece of equipment (ABEM Terrameter 4000) which provides valuable information on water availability in the underground strata (depth, quantity, quality and extension) using advanced software. The investigations are conducted by qualified and experienced experts and technicians.
